What Are the Requirements for U.S. Citizenship?

Becoming a United States citizen can seem like a long and complex process, but the results are well worth the effort. If you are considering becoming a U.S. citizen, the United States government requires you to meet certain criteria, including the ones listed below:

  • Show good moral character
  • Pay child support where appropriate
  • Pay your taxes
  • Have no recent criminal record
  • Pass a civics test
  • Pass a language proficiency test

At Cashman & Lovely, we understand that the requirements of obtaining citizenship can seem overwhelming. As trusted advisors, we offer a wide range of support designed to help you achieve positive results in immigration and naturalization matters. We can help you figure out whether or not you qualify for citizenship. We will also help you complete all legal forms, and will attend your citizenship hearing with you.

While it may be possible to handle citizenship proceedings alone, in some cases, working with an experienced attorney provides you a level of comfort that you are doing things correctly. It minimizes the anxiety and worry associated with citizenship proceedings, protecting you from the common errors inexperienced applicants often make. Certainly, if you have any criminal record you should seek counsel before applying for citizenship.
